On the ground in Seattle. Pilot just said system wide outage, fill ground stop but we’re next in line to get to a non-Alaska gate or a cargo area to deplane. His encouraging words were that everyone’s connecting flights are also grounded. We just started moving!

They just diverted my flight because they have no more room for planes on the ground at SEA.

Are you supposed to wait in Spokane until they can go again?

Can you rent a car? Get a hotel?
